Numeracy

In Maths, we will: 

Grade 5:

• Take part in daily fact fluency sessions to consolidate their automatic recall of maths facts
• Find numbers that are compatible to 50, 100 and 1000
• Use estimation and rounding to check the reasonableness of answers to calculations
• Describe translations, reflections and rotations of two-dimensional shapes. Identify line and rotational symmetries 
• List outcomes of chance experiments involving equally likely outcomes and represent probabilities of those outcomes using fractions
• Use efficient addition and subtraction mental and written strategies to solve problems.

Grade 6:

• Take part in daily fact fluency sessions to consolidate their automatic recall of maths facts
• Investigate the effect of combinations of transformations on simple and composite shapes, including creating tessellations
• Describe probabilities using fractions, decimals and percentages
• Select and apply efficient mental and  written strategies to solve worded and number problems  with whole numbers and make estimates for these computations.
